2022 Volvo S90 Recharge Plug-in Hybrid Wiper blades and washer fluid Owners Manual

The washer nozzles are heated automatically in cold weather to prevent the washer fluid from freezing.

Information indicating that the washer fluid needs topping up appears in the driver display when there is approx. 1 litre (1 qt) of washer fluid remaining.

Setting the wiper blades in the service position

In some situations, the windscreen’s wiper blades must be set in service position (vertical position), e.g. when they shall be replaced.

Wiper blades in service position.

In order to change, clean or lift the wiper blades (e.g. for scraping off ice from the windscreen) they must be in service position.

ImportantBefore placing the wiper blades in the service position, make sure that they are not frozen down.

Activating/deactivating service mode

Service mode can be activated/deactivated when the car is stationary and the windscreen wipers are not on. Service mode is activated/deactivated via the centre display:

Press in the centre display.
Then tap on Controls and activate/deactivate wiper blade service position.

The wiper blades also exit the service position if:

Windscreen wiping is activated.
Windscreen washing is activated.
The rain sensor is activated.
The car is driven away.

ImportantIf the wiper arms in service position have been folded up from the windscreen, they must be folded back down onto the windscreen before the activation of wiping, washing or the rain sensor, as well as before driving. This is to avoid scraping the paint on the bonnet.

Topping up washer fluid

Washer fluid is used for cleaning the headlamps and windscreen. Washer fluid with antifreeze must be used when the temperature is under the freezing point.

NoteWhen approx. 1 litre (1 qt) of washer fluid remains in the reservoir, the message Refill washer fluid, level low appears together with the

symbol in the driver display.

When the Refill washer fluid, level low message together with the symbol appear in the driver display, it is time to refill washer fluid

Open the bonnet with the handle in the passenger compartment and then with the handle under the front edge of the bonnet.
Open the washer fluid reservoir cap.
Washer fluid is filled into the reservoir with the blue cap. The reservoir is used for both windscreen washer and headlamp washers.
Top up with washer fluid.
Close the washer fluid reservoir cap and then close the bonnet.

Prescribed grade: Washer fluid recommended by Volvo – with frost protection during cold weather and for temperatures below freezing point.

ImportantUse Volvo genuine washer fluid or equivalent with a recommended pH of between 6 and 8, in working dilution (e.g. 1:1 with neutral water).

ImportantUse washer fluid with antifreeze when the temperature is below freezing to avoid the fluid freezing inside the pump, reservoir and hoses.

Volume:

Cars with headlamp washing: 5.5 litres (5.8 qts).
Cars without headlamp washing: 3.5 litres (3.7 qts).

Replacing windscreen wiper blades

The wiper blades sweep water away from the windscreen. Together with washer fluid, they aim to clean the windscreen and ensure visibility while driving. The wiper blades can be replaced.

Fold up the wiper arm when it is in service position. Service position is activated/deactivated via the centre display when the car is stationary and the windscreen wipers are not switched on. Press the button located on the wiper blade mounting and pull straight out parallel with the wiper arm.
Slide in the new wiper blade until a “click” is heard.
Check that the blade is firmly installed.
Fold the wiper arm back towards the windscreen.

The wiper blades are different lengths

NoteWhen replacing the wiper blades, note that they have different lengths. The blade on the driver’s side is longer than on the passenger side.
